Okay, am I the only person who thought the original was the most annoying 80's "classic" on the planet? 

Nope, you're not alone. . .

I guess there's a ton of us... :)

Although I think any film (Except Spacehunter) thats staring characters from the brat pack is more annoying then Goonies...

I'm sorry, I think the Goonies is a wonderful kid's adventure film.

Perhaps if I watched this when I was a kid...but I don't ever remember being an baby goat, so I'd probably still would have disliked it.

True Dat....

I liked the movie when I was a kid.  I saw it in the theater when it came out.  I still watch it today.  But it is one of those movies that should not have a sequel to it.  This is one of the movies that was good by itself.  I will admit, that the ending was kind of stupid.  I mean there is a pirate ship with lots of treasure and you just let it sail away?  How weird are you?  :question:

My two point five cents.

Well, I saw it when I was younger.  Even then I still didn't get what all the fuss was about, just like today.  It did produce nice video game versions though, with one in the arcades, and a Goonies 2 NES game. 

I wonder if this Goonies 2 will have the totally random Annie The Mermaid like the game version...   :tongueout:

I really loved the Goonies, classic 80's from my child hood, But in no way do I want to see a part 2 I don't even want to see a remake. Two of the actors are dead, two have gotten better careers, well maybe not so much Sean Ashtin I think his Lord of the ring claim to fame is just about up. And Cory Feldmen is a born again christian and no longer does drugs, wears the fun in that. Nope only thing going for this movie is nostalgia, and I got the dvd of the first one. Im happy with that.

It's been rumored for years and years, but as of now, it isn't happening.

From http://www.empireonline.com/news/story.asp?NID=24625 and the current issue of Empire:
Quote29 April 2009
Exclusive: The Goonies Talk Sequel
Never say never. Or die.

You may not have realised, but March 17, 2009, was an historic day. It was on that day in Hollywood, California, that all of The Goonies, including director Richard Donner and producer Steven Spielberg, were reunited for the first time in over 20 years* to have their photo taken for Empire's 20th birthday issue.

Naturally, whenever one or more Goonies are gathered together, they're always asked about a sequel, and this time was no different. Here's a little taste of what they had to say.

Richard Donner: "We tried for a long time. Steven and I had many meetings with writers but nothing stuck. It seemed disrespectful."

Corey Feldman: "So I guess the answer about the sequel is that there's always hope."

Donner: "No. No hope."

Sean Astin: "A year from now, ten years from now, 50 years from now, I'm absolutely convinced there'll be one. We'll figure it out. A sequel could be great. It could be s**tty. You never know. But the original is the thing it is and no-one can ever change it."
